We will be using the same standards we do, quite frankly, with any yard. We did a lot of work up front to assess risk, using our own experts as well as experts from outside the company.
As we go through the build process, there are a number of things we do.
One is having an on-site team to manage the process of doing audits, checks and security assessments throughout the build period. We will also have an entity representing Transport Canada through the build process, and another one or two entities working with us throughout, in different stages of the process. There will be anywhere between 30 and 40 people on site at the shipyard throughout the build process to monitor, evaluate and assess whether the ships are being built according to the specs, etc.
When it comes to sensitive technology and other equipment on board, that will be done and overseen by BC Ferries staff.
There are a number of protections and measures we're putting in place to ensure that the ships we receive will be ready to operate on day one.
